Am Vitalis Odero Ogutu.I went to Wangapala Sec. School where i did my O level with a lot of hardship due to lack of fees from my poor parents. I did not attend college due to same fee problem.I am married with 5 children.Because i had to struggle for my life and my family i began doing casual jobs from which i was able to raise money and bought 2 dairy cows .These 2 dairy cows produces 50 litres @ day which i sell out to my neighbours as my income.Apart from dairy farming i do engage in retail shopping where i do sell food stuff to the neighbourhood from my small scale kiosk.
I do keep two dairy animals in my half an acre farm. Part of the farm has been used to grow nappier grass for the animals. I do supply milk to my neighboring community on a daily basis.The income i get from milk sell has enabled me to pay fee for my children and also for my upkeep including my parents.
I appreciate the first loan of ksh.600 you gave me . It made me move somewhere. I also appreciate your second loan of ksh.4000 which enabled me expand my dairy cattle business and eventually bought two more dairy cattle.and again i appreciate for the third loan which enabled me to plant foder for my cows I now wish to apply for a loan of ksh4000 you recommended for me to continue with business.
I hereby forward my loan proposal to help purchase dairy feed and hay for my cow, at the moment we are experiencing high prices of hay due to drought which lasted for more than eight months, even though the rains have started again in earnest but prices have not been normalized. I therefore, humbly request that you consider my application even though the amount will not be enough but I will add the remaining amount to purchase the required feed needed.
